A study of phase-dependent line-profile variations in WC+O binaries

Phase-dependent line-profile variations of Wolf-Rayet + O-star binaries provide an opportunity to probe the physical and ionization structure of WR winds and the shock zone between the two stars. A model is developed to calculate the phase-dependent variation in the absorption by the wind, which tak...
